FORMER CIA OFFICER David MacMichael spoke in SUB on U.S.
policy in Central America Friday. MacMichael criticized U.S. claims
that Nicaragua ships arms to Salvadorean rebels.
CIA analyst
cks plans
By GORDON CLARK
A former political analyst for the
U.S. Central Intelligence Agency
attacked the U.S. government's
charge that Nicaragua is the hub of
revolution in Central America.
David MacMichael told 300 people in SUB auditorium Friday,
"I'm not here to defend Nicaragua,
I'm here to attack U.S. government
policy."
The National Intelligence
Council, the political wing of the
C.I.A., hired MacMichael in March
1981 as an estimates officer. His
responsibilities included reviewing
cable traffic from agency posts in
the region, intercepting radio
transmissions, and analysing other
raw intelligence datea.
MacMichael said during his
tenure with the N.I.C. he did not
see convincing raw or finished intelligence to indicate a significant
flow of arms from Nicaragua to El
Salvador revolutionaries.
"There has not been one
unimpeachable piece of evidence to
suggest there is a shipment," he
said.
During his lecture MacMichael
held aloft the Reagan administration's report on Nicaraguan "activities" in Central America — the
report is often quoted by Reagan as
concrete evidence of Nicaraguan expansionism in the region. MacMichael, a former university professor, said the report "did not prove anything."
"If you had produced this document as an undergraduate student
in one of my classes, your tenure at
university would have been seriously in doubt," he said.
The U.S. administration claims
the Nicaraguan government is arming Salvadorean rebels from the
sea, air and land, but MacMichael
said during the two years he worked
for the N.I.C. no shipments were
intercepted.
In the three years since MacMichael first worked for the agency
he said no crashes of aircraft carrying arms have been discovered, and
not even peripheral evidence such as

Student press denied access to pope
OTTAWA (CUP) — More than
7,000 journalists were granted
special media status to cover Pope
John Paul II's recent sweep across
Canada, but not a single student
reporter was among them.
"Student press are not bona fide,
full time journalists, therefore not
accredited," said Paschal O'Toole,
public relations coordinator for the
Canadian Conference of Catholic
Bishops.
The Catholic bishops, the RCMP
and the government task force
assigned to visit logistics made the
decision to exclude the student
press, O'Toole said.
O'Toole said he had no idea how
many student newspapers across the
country applied for and had been
denied credentials. He estimated
more than 13,000 journalists applied and only 7,300 were granted
the special status.
O'Toole said full-time clergy, the
Catholic and religious press in
Canada received priority, no matter
their size and frequency, because
the event was a pastoral visit.
The government task force asked
all journalists applying for accreditation to fill in a detailed application and a release allowing the
information to be stored in RCMP
Personal Information Bank P-20 or
P-140.
RCMP Personal Information
Bank P-140 is an exempt bank
under Section 18 (1) of the Privacy
Act, meaning that none of the information gathered in the investigation, relevant or not, can be accessed by the person applying for accreditation.
Canadian University Press,
which has a potential circulation of
350,000 at Canadian post-
secondary institutions, refused to
sign the release for the RCMP and
as a result was denied accreditation.
CUP's decision not to sign a
waiver was made after legal consultation. "It's outrageous that the
RCMP wants this information. It's
hardly necessary and it's an invasion of privacy," said Muriel
Draaisma, national bureau chief for
Canadian University Press.
"We did not want to supply any
more information to the RCMP
about the student press. I'm sure
they have plenty already."
Asked what effect the student exclusion policy might have on future
relations between the Catholic
Bishops and the student press,
O'Toole said, "If the student press
would like to write scurrilous
material, or whatever, about the
Conference of Catholic Bishops
and the Catholic Press, by all means
be our guests.
"Rome survived 2,000 years. I'm
sure it will survive the (student
press), he said.
Budget rushed
By ROBERT BEYNON
Most governments spend the majority of their time in session
discussing their budget. But in Jess than two weeks the Alma Mater
Society council brushed aside serious questions regarding its
budgetary process because it wants to be efficient.
Aug. 29 student council sent its budget back to the budget committee for the first time in its history.
Sept. 19 the AMS accepted the budget, quickly discussed possible
changes to budgetary procedure and dismissed the issue.
Although student council handles the $42 fee from more than
26,000 students, council did not think a detailed examination of their
budget procedure was necessary.
This happened although:
• the budget committee allowed the expenditure of $59,000 on the
AMS's Whistler cabin before the entire student council could discuss
the issue.
• a budget covering hundreds of thousands of dollars in expenditures was almost passed by council in less than an hour's notice.
Some of these issues were addressed by the AMS at Us Sept. 19
meeting but no amending motions were passed.
Even AMS finance director James Mollis said the process of
choosing die budget committee could be more rigorous. "Committee
members only require council approval," Hollis says.
. But Hollis does not agree that he or the budget committee

$59,000 Whistler cabio renovations.
AMS vice president Doug Low and council member Duncan.•
Stewart, disagree with Hollis. Low said an article at Section 10 of the
AMS's code states the committee cannot allow an expenditure of
more than $409 without council's approval; the comotrttee defirateiy
overstepped its power this summer.
And Stewart said more time should have been allowed for detailed
discussion of the document.
Finance director Hollis said people could have discussed the
budget with the committee during it's three month preparation. He
claims none of the people who later attacked the budget did this.
Stewart said despite late presentation of the budget, allowances for

CFS launches membership campaign at UBC
By ROBERT BEYNON
The Canadian Federation of
Students is working hard to pass the
membership referendum at UBC
this November, an organizer said
Thursday.
Duncan Stewart, a student
council arts representative, said
CFS is officially striking a committee to begin a pro-CFS membership
drive at UBC Wednesday.
"CFS isn't behind in its campaign," Stewart said.
He said CFS had to waste energy
organizing people and working with
student council before beginning an
official campaign aimed at the student body.
"We (the new committee) will be
starting a massive publicity blitz
Oct. 10 which will utilize posters,
pamphlets, speakers, forums, CITR
and The Ubyssey," Stewart said.
A major delay in CFS's original
plan was student council's unwillingness to take a stand on whether
UBC students should join CFS, he
said.
CFS originally thought council
would make a decision in August,
he said. "But now it looks like they
will make no decision at all," he added.
In fact, the failure of Nancy
Bradshaw, AMS external coordinator, to provide a leadership role
has delayed student council's stand
and CFS' campaign organization,
Stewart said.
College trains cameras on students
ST. ANNE de BELLEVUE,
Que. (CUP) — Administrators at
John Abbott College in this city are
tight-lipped about the appearance
of small grey boxes in the hallways
on campus.
The steel fixtures look like electrical connection boxes, painted
with the number "600V" on the
side. In fact, they are television
cameras, set up during the summer
to watch the 5,000 students attending the West Island CEGEP.
The school's administration has
spent more than $60,000 installing
the system, which uses unfra-red
lenses to film activity and store it on
video tapes.
"The cameras are for the safety
of the kids and to cut down on van
dalism and attempts of bodily harm
to students," said John
Mastropaolo, co-ordinator of
facilities. Mastropaolo refused to
say how many of the cameras have
been installed and what "600V"
means.
Jamie Patton, a student board of
governors representative, said the
board did not vote on allocating
money for the cameras. When he
inquired about the matter, he said
he received contradictory answers.
Luc Henrico, John Abbott's
director-general, first told Patton
that he had no idea where the
cameras came from. Later, Patton
said, Henrico admitted the cameras
were paid for from the school's
capital budget.
When pressured about the contradiction, Patton said Henrico
replied: "I don't know everything
that's going on around the
college."
"It's a college for god's sake, not
a prison. It's an invasion of privacy.
At nighttime, O.K., but not during
the day," Patton said.
Tom McDenna, an employee at
Montreal Video, which supplied the
cameras, said they cost $500 to $600
each and accompanying video-
cassette recorders cost $200 to
$5,000, not including installation.
McDenna said the Montreal
market for surveillance cameras is
booming.
"She was elected to take a position," Stewart said, "but she has
not done this."
Bradshaw said she does support
the referendum but she can see
arguments for not joining CFS. She
said if the AMS collected $7.50
from every student (the fee CFS is
asking for) the AMS could do a better job supporting the students than
CFS will because the AMS has more
resources.
She added, "Many student council members are in favour of UBC
having weighted voting at CFS conferences if we joined." She said
smaller members of CFS will never
agree to this because they feel they
equally represent students.
She said it is not her fault if CFS
had a slow start organizing its campaign at UBC. "CFS has not yet offered to set up a yes committee,"
she said.
She said she agreed to help
organize a yes committee, but she
added she was also willing to set up
a no committee although only one
person approached her about tne
idea.
She added council is not prepared
to vote on joining an organization
they do not know enough about.
CFS is a group of Canadian colleges
and universities organized to study
education in Canada and to fight
for more accessible and higher
quality education. Page 2

"We're not getting our money's

MacMichael also attacked the

Nicaraguan contras who regularly
attack villages inside Nicaragua,
and who are committed to overpressure on the U.S. government,

Despite these contentions surrounding the AMS' budget procedure council spent only part of
one session discussing the issue.
Council did not even have time
for an in depth discussion on the
AMS's monetary priorities*
Finance director Hollis said the
budget committee must design the
budget to get the most return for its
money, which means expenditures
on Whistler are justified and large
expenditures on the AMS' external
affairs department are not.
But in a time of serious cutbacks
students' money may get the best
return in an active lobby in the provincial legislature. Hollis said these
are matters of personal taste.
But the AMS has ignored seriously discussing these matters of taste.
They are in a hurry to keep the
AMS operating and to get that

MacMichael said he is bound by
the secrecy act not to reveal state

is passed by the C.I.A.
"I have an excellent attorney to
help me stay out of jail," he added.
MacMichael has come under attack from a number of people including Ronald Reagan. Secretary
of State George Shulz said "he
must be living in some other
world." MacMichael said he is not
concerned by such criticism, adding
the U.S. government must prove his
analysis is incorrect.
"I get up every morning and no

s anti-union bias attacked
By PATTI FLATHER
The Dre«idc-nt of UBC's teaching
assistants union attacked as antiunion a new report which says TAs
will unionize more in the future.
Horacio de la Cueva said Thursday education dean Daniel Birch's
coauthored report entitled
"Teaching Assistant Unionization:
Origins and Implications" contributes to the administration's attempts to weaken the TAU.
"The report perceives TA
unionization as a problem that
should be solved and not necessarily
in a friendly way," Cueva charged.
"They (the authors) complained
a lot that labor laws in Canada are
too lenient in allowing TA unions to
be formed," Cueva said.
One part of the report, which
recently appeared in the Canadian
Journal of Higher Education, says
TA union negotiators have made
demands consistent with "a radical
student world view." Examples
given were "autonomy and
academic freedom in TA duties,
Protection against discrimination,
retribution and harassment for
political, social and sexual
reasons."
Cueva said he is angry Birch considers these demands radical.
Cueva also said the report,
coauthored with Simon Fraser
University professor Robert
Rogow, gives ideas for busting TA
unions. The report says TA unions
would have more problems if antiunion TAs mobilized more.
UBC's TA union is five years old
and has yet to go on strike. The
TAU is open shop with more than
half its TAs belonging to the union,
Cueva said.
Birch was unavailable for comment.
Cueva said the report's antiunion tendencies are part of an
overall university attempt to break
TAU communications channels and
weaken the union.
The TAU lost the right to compel
attendance at orientation meetings
in last year's contract in exchange
for "a mutually agreeable information letter that should have gone out
with the registration package,"
Cueva said.
But the TAU and the administration failed to agree on the letter's
content so the dispute will go to arbitration Nov. 8. "There has been
no means of communication between the TA union and the TAs,"
Cueva said.
The TAU's contract expired
Aug. 31 but UBC Employee Relations officer Pat Brown said a committee has been struck. She added
she did not know when proposals
will be ready.
She said the union knows why its
letter was rejected and refused to
expand.
Jobs need filling
Many work-study positions have
not yet been filled, UBC's awards
director said Thursday.
Byron Hender said interested
students should go to the campus
employment centre and see the remaining jobs posted there. He added he could not say exactly how
many of the 600 jobs remained.
"But if we go beyond our present
$600,000 budget (to finance the
jobs) the UBC administration said
we may be able to get more money
yet," Henders said. He said in
previous years the work-study program has always gone over budget.
The program creates on campus
jobs for students, with a maximum
loan who need more money.
Hender said this year the maximum allocation receiveable by a
student has increased from $2,000
to $2,500 and now out of province
students requiring more money are
also eligible for the UBC program.
He added the awards office is late
processing work-study forms
because they have more jobs this
year than last year. "There are 200
more work-study positions
although the provincial government
cut the program this year,"
Henders said.
The provincial government cut
$100,000 from its allocation to the
program but UBC has increased its
contribution by $500,000. Work-
study therefore had a budget of
close to $600,000.
Work-study organizer Sheila
Summers said she was so busy processing work-study forms she could
not take time to discuss how many
people the program has accepted.

Aging garbage the result of budget cuts
By PATTI FLATHER
Campus budget choppers seem to
like their garbage well aged.
Funding cuts to UBC's Physical
Plant mean fewer workers are picking garbage up on UBC grounds,
assistant Physical Plant director
Chuck Rooney said Thursday.
Rooney said garbage collection
was done regularly last year and
may have needed two people a week
at this time of year. "It's not as
regular now because those people
are assigned to other duties we feel
have a higher priority."
Garbage cans are still being emp
tied regularly but there is no longer
a routine for lawn-cleaning,
Rooney said, adding lawns may
now be cleaned only once per week.
"That would be spot cleaning,
not a sweep through the entire campus," Rooney said.
But Rooney said he was surprised
to hear complaints of excess litter
and would not speculate on the effects of potential budget cuts.
"Its difficult to say whether
we're having problems because you
don't see them overnight. It's sort
of degenerative," he said.

British education cuts deny access
quotas.
Another organization, the National Advisory Body for Local
Authority Higher Education, said
the level of polytechnic and college
enrolment should not be allowed to
fall below current levels, the Guardian reported.
UBC education professor Murray
Elliot, who recently studied at Cambridge, said morale there was poor.
Elliot added teachers wages in Britain are very depressed. But he said
he could not draw similarities between Britain's post-secondary
education situation and B.C.'s.
British government advisers told
the university ministry this week
that Britain's post-secondary
education system will be unable to
meet the nation's needs if it receives
more cuts, a British newspaper
reported.
The Sept. 23 Manchester Guardian Weekly revealed a university
grants committee report that said
more money must be spent, and
40,000 more places for students
finance, said $645,000 was cut from
Physical Plant's 1984-85 budget But
he said he did not know the percentage of their budget this represents.
A university custodian picking
garbage up on a lawn Thursday said
it was not his job but nobody else
was doing it. The custodian did not
want to be named because he said
Plant management does not like
employees discussing cutbacks.
Laura Bennett, arts 1, said she
had noticed a lot of litter around
UBC recently. "I just thought more
people were pigs around here," she
said.
Publicity for Loto UBC tickets locking
must be found by the end of the
1980s.
The UGC allocates government
grants to Britain's universities and
colleges.
The report said academic planning has been disrupted, morale has
been impaired, thousands have
been denied access to university and
confidence in the government has
been shaken.
The UGC report added universities require a five million pound
(S8.2 million Canadian) funding increase to update laboratory equipment that have become obsolete.
Further cuts would result in the
closure of at least one university,
the report said.
But British education secretary
Keith Joseph earlier said further
cuts to the university budget cannot
be ruled out.
In the last three years Joseph's
ministry reduced student
placements in Britain by 20,000 at a
time when demand for higher
education reached record levels, the
Guardian said.

is largely controlled by the national

A random survey of students
in SUB showed many students
do not know the Alma Mater
Society lottery exists.
"I wasn't even aware of it,"
said Rosa Telegram, arts 1. "I
don't even know about it," said
John Ghatak, history 1.
Jeff Pentlin, arts 1, said he did
not care about the lottery. "It
doesn't affect me any, because I
didn't buy a ticket," Pentlin
said.
The AMS organized the lottery to raise attention to tuition
fees, to raise funds for its bursary fund and to award at least
one free tuition to the winner.
Nancy Bradshaw, AMS exter
nal affairs coordinator and a lot-
ter organizer, said all but 200 of
the 10,000 lottery tickets have
been issued to students to sell.
"That doesn't mean they've
been sold necessarily," she added.
Ticket seller Dan Andrews
said they sold only 200 tickets
during registration week,
although the ticket booth was
placed where "every student had
to pass our booth." Since then
he sold only 24 tickets.
Bradshaw claimed the lottery
was already a success in terms of
public attention. "It was successful in that we got media attention for the problems of stu
dent aid and tuition increases,
and in that we've gotten a great
deal of public support," she
said. She added B.C. support for
universities is the worst provincial support in Canada.
Bradshaw said ticket sales
have raised at least enough funds
to guarantee one prize of a
year's tuition. A standard
15-credit programme UBC tuition fee costs $1,115. "We'd
hoped to give out two or three
prizes," she added.
The AMS hopes to sell all the
tickets by the draw date Oct. 19
said Bradshaw. "So far it's been
only mildly successful."

Student's lefts
The concept of student rights has come a long way since the 1960's,
when students fought long and hard for a say in their education.
Unfortunately the concept has not come far enough. Student rights are
often pushed aside as irrelevant, or not solicited for the sake of expediency. Student autonomy over their affairs is seen by many as an impractical
dream to cast aside for efficiency's sake.
Recent examples of this trend are happening at UBC and at other Canadian universities. UBC housing's new rules banning parties Sunday to
Thursday were imposed with little consultation with students, then
perfected over the summer when few students are around. Housing claimed most students support the stricter rules but gave no proof this is so
amidst strong evidence to the contrary.
Another close-to-home gem is found in education dean Daniel Birch's
report on TA organization. He brands union demands as "radical". They
ask for autonomy and academic freedom, and for protection from
discrimination, retribution, and political, sexual, or social harassment.
These demands are not radical — one wonders if Birch opposes these
rights because they come from mere students, or in principle.
Other recent cases abound which are depressing. Student journalists
were denied press accreditation to see the Pope and also to Alexander
Haig's speech to the Young Socreds. Obviously the right of the Pope and
the Socreds to censor the media is valued by the powers that be more than
student rights to freedom of information via alternative student press. And
let's not pretend the commercial press is not biased.
Perhaps more alarming for the students of one small Quebec CEGEP is
the installation of cameras checking on vandalism — read — spying on
students. Students were not asked how they might feel about being spied
on, that was apparently unimportant. After all the only reason the CEGEP
is there, ultimately, is for the students. Of course the students don't like it
and no one quite knows who approved the camera purchases but that
doesn't matter since students wield less power, and might makes right.
Also disturbing was the reaction of the university of Toronto's arts and
sciences dean after students occupied his office protesting the quality of
education. He met with the students, which was very nice, but, as he left
he made it clear nobody would change his views in half an hour.
Well, maybe that's understandable.
How long would it take students to influence UBC's board of governors
to change their fiscal minds on tuition fee increases? Ten thousand petitions later? And counting.
Students can no longer assume their rights to a say in their own education will be considered. They must demand to be heard, and demand loud.
Letters
SUB garbage piles up inside and out
Each morning at 8:00 I arrive on
campus, hit the pool, then head off
to class. Usually, that is the only
time I get to this area of the campus.
At that time of day, everything
looks par normal to me. The
grounds look clean and tidy, as do
the people walking around (is 'preppy' an appropriate adjective?).
Now, last Friday while enjoying a
beer in the Gallery with some
friends, a conversation came up
which made my ears perk up. The
topic was the state of garbage and
litter around the campus, especially
around the SUB building.
My naive reaction was,
"Where?". Eyes turned on me as I
was told with some hostility, "Look
around! Where have you been?"
So on my way out I did look, arid
the state of affairs was not exaggerated. What a disgusting mess,
and this is to say nothing of the inside of the SUB. The hill outside the
SUB looked as though a snow
storm had hit it.
My reaction was, what kind of
mentality would do this (perhaps
the answers lie in the graffiti in the
SUB washrooms). It must take
someone all night to clean up the
mess so that I can enjoy seeing
those clean and tidy grounds each
morning. And I wonder why my
tuition is so high?
Taking this issue one step further, if there is no desire to keep the
campus clean, what then is the level
of our ecological concerns? Notice
how many paths of bareground
there are paralleling a paved
sidewalk. How much of the pave-

This is a warning to all UBC
students. There is a cult illegally
and illegitimately operating on campus soliciting funds for what they
say is food for starving children in
India generally.
They wear ID badges which say
registered Canadian charity and ask
for a small donation, maybe three
dollars, and they will give you a
sticker or button in return. In fact
this money goes into the cult, not
starving children and they are in
fact operating illegally since that
badge they wear is a misrepresentation as are their stated goals.
Legitimate charities do not solicit
money in this way (they are very
pushy too) and if they did they
would have a form from the provincial government. If you get approached by these people please do
your fellow students a favour and
inform campus security at
228-4721, they are aware of the problem.

warning, please, no 'Keep UBC
Clean' flyers as we all know where
they will end up.
And think, perhaps if less time
had to be spent picking up garbage
at night, someone might be able to
do something about the SUB
washroom graffiti.

AMS security will be
watching you and yours
All Alma Mater Society clubs and
constituencies may be aware that
the AMS has a new security team on
duty in the Student Union Building
on Friday and Saturday nights. The
purpose of the team is to assist the
proctor in protecting SUB from
theft and vandalism, to aid and
supervise security teams hired for
functiotis in SUB, and to enforce
SAC policy in the games room. The
AMS security team can be recognized by their blue shirts with the
yellow logo and security name tags.
The security team's responsibilities may be viewed either in the
glass case outside the executive offices on the second floor of SUB, or
outside all Friday and Saturday
night functions.
Clubs and constituencies have
their own responsibilities. For example, at liquor functions, alcohol
must not be sold in bottles, or leave
the function in any form. Violations of these, and other regula
tions, regarding functions in SUB
will not be tolerated.
The RCMP has promised to
check each function and to restrict
liquor sales to 11:30 p.m. Clubs and
constituencies have brought these
restrictions upon themselves by
neglecting to adhere to these regulations.
Consequently, the SAC clubs
commissioners in conjunction with
the SAC security commissioner, are
mounting a campaign to make sure
these rules are adhered to in order
that clubs and constituencies may
have greater freedom at future
functions.
Also of importance is the fact
that all members of SAC, upon
presenting their SAC ID cards must
be permitted access to any function
for the purpose of security spot
checks.

Disgusting litterbugs lack pride
I am writing to say how disgusted
I am with the appalling amount of
litter that is being deposited and accumulating on our campus
grounds, especially the area in and
around the Student Union
Building.
What can we do to stop this
senseless form of pollution? How
may we work together to instill a
sense of pride in our university
community. Your comments and
suggestions would be appreciated.

U of T protests low funding
TORONTO (CUP) - Students
who staged a dramatic 24-hour occupation of the arts and science
dean's office at the University of
Toronto last week in protest of
underfunding are pleased with their
efforts.
"We worked from the
grassroots, and we raised consciousness," said Ava Szczurko,
one of the spokespeople for the 25
occupiers. "We told people that the
education system is in crisis."
Fiona Keith, another spokesperson for the students, said the
"spontaneous" action brought
together many students who had
never publicly demonstrated their
concerns about post-secondary action.
"This was the first time any of us
had taken part in an action of this
kind," Keith said.
The students, carrying banners
and marching through hallways in
the arts and science building before
reaching the dean's office, began
the occupation at noon Sept. 20 and
stayed through the night until noon
the next day. A sign saying "Oc-

cupied" was posted outside the office.
While groups of students
negotiated with arts and science
dean Robin Armstrong about their
demands, students in the building
and all over campus distributed
leaflets and collected more than 300
signatures on a petition supporting
the action.
"Underfunding, a problem for a
decade, has now produced a crisis
in education in Ontario," said a
statement released by the occupiers.
"Classes are overcrowded and
qualified students are being denied
access to courses they need in order
to complete their requirements."
The students demanded the arts
and sciences dean admit the faculty
is severely underfunded and that the
measures taken to alleviate the problem undermine students' right to a
quality education. The measures in
cluded balloting, a sign-up process
where students get the courses they
want on a first-come, first-serve
basis, limited enrolment in certain
programs and the redistribution of
funds from one financially strapped
department to another.
They also wanted the dean to extend the deadline for enrolment in
arts and science courses, which he
later did.
After two negotiating sessions,
dean Armstrong acknowledged that
some attempts by the faculty to
cope with underfunding are "band-
aid measures." But he quickly added that they do not in any way impede a student's education.
Emerging from his office after
the sessions, he said: "We don't
really have any different viewpoints
(than before). My mind is not
changed in half an hour conversation with everyone."

Receiver arrives
By MONTE STEWART
The Thunderbird football team
has obtained receiving help for the
remaining portion of the 1984
Western Intercollegiate Football
League season.
Tom Vlasic has registered at UBC
after a brief stint at the University
of Wyoming. The Notre Dame
graduate was considered to be the
best college prospect in 1984. But,
much to the chagrin of several B.C.
football mentors, he opted to head
stateside.
The Wyoming club wanted to red
sirt Vlasic this season, a process
whereby a player practices with the
team but does not play any regular
season games. With the loss of
receivers Bob Skemp and Bruce
Rainer for the balance of the seson
and Rob Ros for the time being,
Vlasic will see action this Saturday
when the 'Birds host the University
of Saskatchewan Huskies in an
afternoon contest.

So, you like reading about the T'birds
and their antics in the mud at UBC, eh?
Well, this story could have been longer,
but the poor sports writer had to go to

feel the same way: depressed, I feel like
I've been left hanging. Where is that
stunning analysis about next week's
game against the Moosejaw Mud-

The Ubyssey needs sports writer really
badly. And its not like you really have
to know that much about either sports
or grammar. Jim Taylor has proven
that, and look how happy he is, or at
least seems. So, come in — do your bit

Field hockey squad comes in second place
By DENISE COUTTS
Sunshine and blue skies
highlighted a weekend of field
hockey action as the UBC women's
coach Gail Wilson, who used the
tournament to prepare her team for
this weekend's Canada West tournament in Calgary.
SPORTS
varsity team hosted the Early Bird
Invitational Tournament at
Thunderbird Park.
The tournament was a huge success, not only for the players on the
eight teams who enjoyed the excellent competition, but for UBC
The UBC team advanced to the
finals on Sunday afternoon by
defeating North Vancouver 2-0 in
semi-final play in the morning. In
the afternoon final they lost to
Doves by a score of 2-0 to place se
cond in the tournament.
Although Doves dominated play
in the first half, scoring both of
their goals, UBC fought back and
played a strong second half,
creating several scoring chances-.
But the 'Birds were unable to put
the ball in the net.
Coach Wilson said she was disappointed with the loss but not with
her team. "I think the team played
. . . better than I thought they
would. They're a very young team
and they have a lot of growing to
do," said Wilson.
The UBC coach used the
weekend play to refine the technical
aspects of the 'Birds' game. Even
though the UBC team is hosting this
year's CIAU Championships in
November and is guaranteed a
berth in the play-offs, Wilson and
the team are working extremely
hard at being seeded first in the
West.
The University of Victoria is the
main competition in the Canada
West league. The Vikettes will be
vying for a first place finish. A
strong rivalry has developed between UBC and UVic and as a
result, sports fans can witness top-
quality play whenever these two
teams meet.
UBC's next home stand is on the
weekend of October 20 and 21 when
they host the last Canada West
tournament before the national
championships.
This weekend, the T-Birds travel
to Calgary for the second Canada
West tourney of the season.

Hockey 'Birds get ready
By MONTE STEWART
The 1984 Canada West hockey
season is just around the corner.
The 'Birds defeated the UBC Alumni squad 8-3 at Thunderbird Winter
Sports centre Friday.
This weekend, the T-Birds host
the annual Empress Cup Tournament featuring UBC, the Calgary
Dinosaurs and the University of
Regina Cougars.
The UBC club underwent a major overhaul this season. Fred
Masuch replaced Jack Moores as
head coach because Moore could
not take time off teaching in North
Delta. Former All-Canadian Bill
Holoway has returned after a two
year absence while he played for
Japan's Seibu.

Soccer in Ontario
TORONTO (CUP) — After
years of playing on an ad hoc basis,
women's soccer has finally entered
the big leagues and become a full-
fledged intercollegiate sport this fall
in Ontario.
Women's soccer has been played
informally between schools for the
past five years, but this is the first
time it has been recognized as a
legitimate intercollegiate sport. A
rush of enthusiastic women joining
soccer teams last fall prompted administrators into putting it on their
sports roster.
Women's athletics administrators
are now anxious to have the Canadian Interuniversity Athletic Union
sanction a national women's soccer
competition.
also joined the team, showing considerable promise in exhibition
play. But he injured his hand in a
preseason contest in Nanaimo a
week ago and will miss the Empress
Cup games.
The tournament begins Thursday
when the 'Birds take on Calgary at
7:30 p.m. Friday the Dinosaurs
meet the Cougars. As host team,
UBC plays one less game. A victory
over the Cougars on Saturday (2:00
p.m. starting time) would put the
T-Birds in Sunday afternoon's
championship game.
The Dinos return here next
weekend for the Canada West
season start.

The UBC men's soccer club
began this season like it did last
year. Hopefully history will not
repeat itself.
After posting a win and a tie in
Canada West action last weekend,
the T-Birds are exactly where they
were at this time last season — in
first place with a 3-0-1 record.
The 'Birds tied the Alberta
Golden Bears 1-1 in Edmonton
before bombing the hapless Saskatchewan Huskies 6-0 in Saskatoon
Saturday.
Ken Mulleny led the UBC
onslaught with two goals Saturday.
Jonathan Pirie, Kent Burkholdter,
Rob Shelley, and Sean McLaughlin
also tallied for Joe Johnson's crew.
Shelley scored the lone UBC
marker against Alberta. The second
year striker found the net in the
65th minute.
Last year, the 'Birds started in
similar fashion. However, a tie
proved to be the difference between
a play-off spot and no spot. The
University of Victoria Vikings
defeated the 'Birds 1-0 in the final
game of the season to win the
Canada West title and the lone
Canada West placement in national
play-offs.
This weekend, the Blue and Gold
travel to Victoria for a game that
could determine their fate again.
Meanwhile, the UBC women's
soccer team rolled to a pair of victories last weekend.
